She felt like she had to do something to end the awkwardness. Richard, sitting beside her, tilted his
head as she went to reapply her lipstick, and he saw her take off the cap and reapply it to her lips.
“What are you staring at?” Angela shifted her gaze to him.
“Nothing.”
Angela had an epiphany and asked, “Are you interested in me? And what exactly are you planning to
do to me?”
Richard replied with a straight-forward gaze, “Nothing.”
“You look like you do! Hah! Why did you even say that you are here to protect me? You should be the
most dangerous one there.” Angela looked at him with a pair of beautiful eyes.
Richard frowned when she said that, but his teammates laughed out loud, which he could hear on his
earpiece. Listening to their typically dignified captain get embarrassed was a rare treat.
“Richard, give in to her already! However, you’re not at a loss because Miss Meyers is so pretty.” And
he could hear someone beginning to boo at him.
Richard took off his earpiece, put them in his pocket, and told Angela next to him,
“It’s green now.”
Angela bit her red lips in annoyance. Why couldn’t she get rid of him? She couldn’t stand the thought of
spending the day with him.
“Get out of the car and buy me breakfast! I’m hungry, “Angela said to him as she looked at a churro
stall on the side of the road. Instantly, she pulled over, pointed to the stall, and said, “I would like
churros and a glass of milk. Go and buy it for me!”
Richard gave her a glance before unbuckling his seat belt and exiting the car. Once he bought the food
and turned around, Angela gave him a smug smile before stepping on the gas. She fled, abandoning
him.
He looked at her as she drove off. Without wasting any time, he gave the man in the next car a quick
glance, opened the passenger door, and pointed in the direction of the red SUV. “Follow that car.”
The man exclaimed in confusion, “Who are you?”
“Police.” The powerful glare of Richard’s eyes swept across him. The man was so scared that he
started following the red car after being instructed by Richard to do so.
Angela drove a long way on purpose before stopping at a traffic light. She did this to get rid of her
bodyguard for good. She was glad she had gotten away from her bodyguard, so she started to think
about where to head next.
A giant hand slid in through the half open window of her car and pushed the button to unlock it. The
bodyguard quickly slid back into the passenger seat and handed her breakfast while keeping his cool.
“You…” Angela’s eyes narrowed slightly. She could not believe he had caught up to her so quickly.
Then, in a calm tone, Richard said, “I told you I would protect you from danger.”
“But there is no danger! Why would you want to protect me? If anything happens, I’ll contact the police.
You don’t need to follow me all the time. Thank you for your kindness, but please get out of the car,”
Angela told him bluntly to leave.
Richard put the breakfast on the center console, then closed his eyes and folded his arms in front of his
chest as if he were trying to nap. He refused to get out of the car.
Angela bit on her red lips and tried to endure it. She then pressed the gas pedal and drove away.
